Hi,
All the examples of getting WMI information shows using a foreach loop to
loop though multiple entries, like to more than one IP address, etc. If I
just want to get the value for single value attributes, like "Manufacturer"
in SELECT * FROM Win32_ComputerSystem, how would I get that value? This is
the Searcher string that I'm using. Thanks!

ManagementObjectSearcher MOSSearcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher("SELECT
* FROM Win32_ComputerSystem");
